  HighAnimal mechanism

  Grid cell symmetry is shaped by environmental geometry

  Krupic et al. Nature

  Grid-cell firing patterns were distorted by environmental geometry, showing that spatial coding is shaped by enclosure boundaries rather than being perfectly metric.

  Microstructure of a spatial map in the entorhinal cortex

  Hafting et al. Nature

  Identified grid cells with periodic spatial firing patterns in entorhinal cortex.

  Evidence for grid cells in a human memory network

  Doeller, Barry & Burgess. Nature

  Human entorhinal signals showed six-fold directional modulation consistent with grid-cell-like coding.
